2. distinguish between comfort food and favourite food;
3. grasp the writing technique of giving a definition;
4. know more about the impact of food having on us.
学习理解
1. Pay attention to the title of the article and the picture on page 3 and answer the following question.
Before reading the article, can you guess what comfort food is
Comfort food may be a type of food that makes us feel comfortable and happy.
2. Food keeps us healthy and energetic. It can also do more than that. The article below, from a food magazine, discusses the idea of comfort food. Before you read the article, think about the following questions: P2
1)What do you think the article will talk about according to the title
I think it will talk about the food we grow up eating, made by a special family member, or the food that reminds us of happy times in our lives. It helps us feel
relaxed and comfortable.
What foods can have an impact on your feelings
Foods that I eat may impact my feelings in a positive or negative way. Dumplings cheer me up because they remind me of the time when I was younger and helped my grandmother make them. Eating certain foods also brings me mixed feelings. For instance, when I want to relax, especially while studying, I often eat sweet soft cakes; however, it sometimes makes me feel guilty because I know cakes are unhealthy.
Whenever I feel lonely, I have a secret recipe that never fails: rice, milk and sugar, cooked low and slow. No matter how bad my mood is, that perfect combination is always enough to lift my spirits.
每当感到孤独,我都有一个屡试不爽的秘方:大米、牛奶和糖,小火慢炖。不论我情绪有多差,这种绝妙的组合都足以令我振作。
However bad
Sometimes the smell alone can do the trick, not to mention the lovely creamy flavour, which works like a time machine immediately transporting me back to my sunny childhood.
有时只是闻到气味就有这种效果,更不用说那美妙的奶油的味道了,这种味道就像一台时光机,立刻把我带回阳光灿烂的童年。
alone(用于名词或代词后以加强语气)仅仅,单,只
The shoes alone cost 200.
仅鞋子一项就花了200英镑。
do the trick 意为“奏效,起作用,达到目的”。如:
A bit more sugar should do the trick.
再加一点糖应该就可以了。
time machine:时间机器(能使人往返于过去或未来)
not to mention更不用说;且不说
He has two big houses in this country, not to mention his villa in France.
他在这个国家有两座大房子,更别提他在法国的别墅了。
transport使产生身临其境的感觉
The book transports you to another world.
这本书会把你带到另一个世界。
With pleasure, I remember the lazy
Sunday afternoons I used to spend in the warmth of my grandma’s flat, listening to her wonderful stories and greedily eating bowl after bowl of her delicious rice pudding.
欣欣然,我回忆起那些慵懒的周日午后,那时我常常是在外婆温暖的公寓里,一边听她讲着那些精彩的故事,一边一碗接一碗贪婪地吃着她做的美味的大米布丁。
I take my time over every spoonful, gently rolling the silky dessert around my mouth and enjoying the perfect marriage of rice and milk. Before I know it, I’m happy again.
我细细品尝每一勺,让丝滑的甜点在我的口中轻轻转动,享受米糊和牛奶的完美融合。不知不觉中,我便又开心起来了。

Our comfort foods are highly individual. They vary from person to person, depending on our own unique experiences that have shaped our lives.

For example, we often connect chicken soup with a happy childhood and its flavour becomes tied up with(使有关联) the feeling of being taken care of.

The feeling of happiness and sense of belonging can become particularly important for people who move away from their home country.

It is hardest to give up the food that you grow up with.
从小吃到大的食物最难割舍。
Of course, each person’s comfort food largely depends on where they come from—for a Chinese it might be a plate of dumplings with a saucer of vinegar, and for a native of the UK it might be the classic fish and chips, served hot, salty and sour. One mouthful of comfort food takes us back to our cultural roots, giving us the “taste of home” that we cry out for and relieving feelings of homesickness.

individual, depending on our
own unique experiences.
Comfort food gives the “taste
of home” to people who feel

Para. 1:
Para. 2:
Introduce the topic of “comfort food” by describing the author’s personal experience.
Give the definition of comfort food and narrow down(缩小范围) the topic which will be discussed in this article.
Para. 3:

Make a conclusion.
A2. Read the article again carefully and answer the following questions. P4
1. What does the author compare the flavour of the rice pudding to in
the first paragraph
2. What is comfort food in its broadest sense
A time machine that transports the author back to her sunny childhood.
Any food that makes us feel better.
3. According to the third paragraph, how does comfort food such as chicken soup cheer us up
By connecting with our happy childhood and being tied up with the feeling of being taken care of.
4. For people who move away from their home country, what largely determines their comfort food
Where they come from.
应用实践
1. Appreciate the article by completing the following tasks.
(1) Answer the first question of A3 on page 4.
How does the author introduce the topic of comfort food What do you think of this technique
The author introduces the topic with a personal experience from her childhood that illustrates the power comfort food has to lift our spirits, before continuing with a more detailed description of exactly how comfort food does that. This technique is quite effective, as it attracts the reader’s attention and inspires interest in the topic of discussion.
(2) Pay attention to the tip of “Understanding definitions in a text” and answer the following questions.
Tip: Understanding definitions in a text
In some texts definitions are given to key concepts with such expressions as refer to. In some cases, in a broad sense or in a narrow sense is used to make the definition more accurate.
The author focuses on the narrower definition in the article because comfort food is a complex topic. By defining comfort food in this way, the author makes us aware of the wide range of the subject, but then draws our attention to the aspect of comfort food that she will be discussing in this article.
How is the definition of comfort food given in paragraph 2 Why does the author give the definition in this way
The author’s definition of comfort food is given in both its broadest sense, “any food that makes us feel better”, and in a narrower sense, “a particular type of food in association with our happy memories”.
(3) What does “positive emotions” refer to in paragraph 3 And why does the author mention the chicken soup here
The phrase “positive emotions” refers to the memories of a time when we were loved and looked after, which cheers us up. Chicken soup is used as a typical example to explain foods often linked with positive emotions.
Since most people have had the experience of being served chicken soup, especially as a “remedy” when sick in childhood, it is more likely for readers to understand the connection between certain foods and the positive emotions associated with that experience.
(4) How does the author explain the relationship between comfort food and one’s sense of belonging in paragraph 4
The author quotes some food experts’ belief about the connection between food and “memory, family and place”, to support the idea that the food rooted in(根源在于;由…产生)one’s cultural heritage(传统) helps shape one’s sense of belonging.
The author then shows this relationship by providing examples from two different cultural backgrounds: “for a Chinese it might be a plate of dumplings with a saucer of vinegar, and for a native of the UK it might be the classic fish and chips, served hot, salty and sour.” The author summarizes that this kind of comfort food takes us back to our cultural roots, gives us the “taste of home” and relieves our feelings of homesickness.
(5) How do you understand the last sentence of this article “It’s food for the soul.”
We usually associate food with something our bodies need—it relieves our hunger and satisfies our appetite. However, comfort food not only serves that purpose, but also makes us feel comfortable mentally and emotionally.
Since comfort food is closely connected with positive personal emotions and happy memories, eating it can lift one’s spirits. Therefore, comfort food is considered to be food for the soul.
B. Building your language
B1. The passage below is about a different kind of comfort plete the passage with the correct forms of the words and phrases in the box below.
greedily emotion link cry out for
mood dessert relieve do the trick
When we are in low spirits, we may (1) __________ things that give us comfort and a sense of security. Since it brings back happy memories of the past or offers an opportunity to connect with our home culture, comfort food can often (2) ___________. However, there is another type of comfort food, which generates positive (3) _________ in a different way.
cry out for
do the trick
emotions
Food high in calories may also make us feel better. As (4) ________ like cakes are digested, blood sugar levels can go up quickly. As a result, we will be in a better (5) ______ after eating the comfort food. However, the sharp increase in blood sugar will cause the body to produce a special chemical to remove it.
desserts
mood
When the chemical lowers blood sugar levels, we are likely to feel sad again and will (6) ________ eat more comfort food. There is then the danger of entering a cycle of highs and lows(起起落落;快乐和痛苦;成功和失败) where more and more comfort food, high in carbohydrates, needs to be eaten. This (7) __________________ with health problems like being overweight.
greedily
is/has been linked
Comfort food is an important tool in helping us (8) _______ tension and feel good about ourselves. However, be aware of the hidden dangers of high-calorie comfort food!
relieve
Answer two questions.
(1) What type of comfort food is talked about in the passage
This passage talks about a different type of comfort food—food high in calories.
(2) What are the hidden dangers of this type of comfort food
Food high in calories increases the blood sugar level quickly, which causes the body to produce a special chemical to remove it. When the chemical lowers the blood sugar level, the eater is likely to feel sad again and eat more of the food.
This creates a never-ending(永无止境的;没完没了的) cycle of unhealthy eating. The hidden danger of this type of comfort food is that even though it helps relieve our tension and makes us feel good, it also harms our body.
3. Explain the term “comfort food” based on the article in Reading part
and the B1 passage.
Comfort food, in a broad sense, refers to any food that makes people feel better when they are unwell or in low spirits. One kind of comfort food can bring back our happy memories of the past or offer an opportunity to connect with our home culture.
Another type of comfort food, which is high in calories, can generate positive emotions by making the blood sugar level increase quickly, thus harming the body.
bring sth back
A. 使回忆起;使想起
The photographs brought back many pleasant memories.

B3. The article uses different phrases to express “to make sb think of sth” and “to make sb feel better”. Find these expressions in the article and improve the sentences below by varying
the language.
Learn this: It is important to vary your language in your writing so that readers do not get bored. To achieve this, you can use words and phrases with similar meanings.

迁移创新
1. Answer the last two questions of A3 on page 4.
2) What foods can remind you of your happy memories Describe the memories they recall.
For me, childhood is inseparably(密不可分地)[ n'sepr bl ] connected with the taste of tanghulu, a snack of sugar-coated(包有糖衣的;裹糖的) hawthorn berries(山楂浆果) on a bamboo stick. My dad used to bring me all sorts of snacks when he came back home from work, but tanghulu is by far my favourite. Even now, the mere taste of this treat recalls the warmth of his bear
hugs. Whenever I miss home, I treat myself to a stick of tanghulu. It’s my secret cure for homesickness and it works every time.
3) In your opinion, is there any difference between one’s comfort food and favourite food Give your reasons.
I think people’s favourite food and comfort food are different in two ways. First, people’s favourite food can come and go, while their comfort food often remains the same. Second, people’s favourite food often connects with satisfying their hunger, while comfort food usually connects with memories from their childhood.
Work in pairs to discuss the following questions.
(1) What is the author’s purpose for writing this article
The author wants to point out that food is not only useful for keeping us alive and healthy, but in the form of comfort food, it also benefits us emotionally by lifting our spirits and soothing(安抚;抚慰;使平静)our soul.
(2) What other functions does food have
Food is a big part of our history and culture. For example, zongzi reminds us of the historical story of Qu Yuan, which has been passed down through generations. The food we eat also teaches us more about the important values in our culture.
We eat jiaozi during the Spring Festival, and have mooncakes at the Mid-Autumn Festival, which represents the joint( 联合的;共同的) family values we share.
Discuss in pairs the following question.
There is an English saying—you are what you eat. What is your understanding of this saying
The food we eat impacts on our health directly. If we eat healthy food, we will be healthy, and we will be unhealthy if we constantly eat processed foods like junk food. Our food choices are often reflected in how we look too—our skin may not be clear or we may become overweight if we eat unhealthily, so eating freshly(刚刚,新近) prepared local and seasonal foods are better for keeping us healthy and looking good.(共34张PPT)

Video script
Narrator: The UK’s favourite takeaway meal is of course fish and chips. It consists of deep-fried fish and fat golden chips, and is often served with salt and vinegar,or sauces. The best place to find fish and chips is small local restaurants or food trucks, particularly in seaside towns. The dish became widespread when new railways made it easier to bring fresh
fish to industrial cities in the second half of the 19th century. The dish was traditionally wrapped in newspaper, but nowadays it comes in clean white paper or a small paper box.
Sushi is a Japanese dish that enjoys great popularity both in and outside Japan.The key to this Japanese dish is its sticky rice, and it can be topped(覆盖;放在…的上面) or filled with a wide variety of other ingredients, especially seafood, eggs and vegetables.
Sushi comes in all shapes and sizes and is often served in a “roll” of seaweed.
Part of sushi’s popularity comes from its freshness and the ease(容易;轻易;不费劲) with which it can be eaten as a quick snack. This makes it a great choice for school students and office workers who want a convenient and healthy lunch.
A taco is a traditional Mexican dish made up of a corn or wheat pancake rolled
around a filling. With stands normally offering a broad range of ingredients
such as beef, chicken, seafood, vegetables and cheese, you are sure to find a taco filling to your taste. Tacos are the most well-known street food in Mexico. Easy to hold and relatively quick to eat, they are particularly popular among sightseers—perfect for relieving hunger on the go(十分活跃;非常忙碌).
Pasta, a speciality [ spe i l ti] of Italy, is typically made from flour, water and sometimes eggs, and comes in many different shapes. Pasta can be paired(使配对;使配成搭档) with almost anything—some common additions(增加物;添加物) include meat, seafood, onions, tomatoes and mushrooms.
There are also plenty of inventive ways to prepare pasta—with a sauce, in a soup, or as part of a baked dish. No wonder it is popular all around the world.(共237张PPT)

A1. People all over the world eat different kinds of noodles. Read the magazine article about the history of noodles and answer the questions below. P59
People all around the world have enjoyed noodles for thousands of years. But did you ever stop to think: who made the very first noodle People first started growing wheat and making flour in the Middle East around 10,000 years ago. But no one had ever found a prehistoric noodle—until 2002.
Archaeologists [ ɑ:k l d sts] discovered an upside-down(倒置的) clay bowl in the ruins of an ancient Chinese village. When they lifted it, they found a 4,000-year-old noodle. This “mummy” noodle was made from millet [ m l t](小米;粟). Traders brought wheat to China about the time this ancient noodle was cooked.
The Chinese eventually mastered the art of stretching wheat dough into long noodles. Today, an expert chef can turn a ball of dough into 3-metre noodles in just minutes.
Some people claim that Marco Polo brought pasta [ p st ](面食) to Italy. The tale says that when he visited China, he tried noodles for the first time and liked them so much that he took the recipe [ res pi] home.
But it is probably not true! In fact, it was likely made up[编造(故事、谎言等)] by an American magazine to try to get Americans to eat more pasta. According to Marco Polo, wheat was used for making thin noodles, not bread, in China. Since Marco Polo described Chinese noodles by comparing them to Italian noodles, it is clear that in Marco Polo’s Italy, noodles were already on the menu.
So, if Marco Polo did not bring noodles to Italy, who did The oldest written mention of pasta outside China comes from the Middle East, about 1,600 years ago. The text describes how to eat dried noodles, a popular travel food in the Middle East and Central Asia. Dried noodles were perfect for long trips. They were tasty, easy to carry, and never went bad.
Some historians believe that dried noodles spread[传播;散布;(使)流传] out from the Middle East or Central Asia. Traders packed their noodles and travelled to other parts of the world. Wherever they got the recipe, Italians were eating pasta long before Marco Polo.
So who REALLY invented noodles We may never know—the history of noodles is as twisted as a bowl of spaghetti [sp ɡeti](意大利细面条). But whoever invented them, we’re sure glad they did!
1. What does the underlined word “Archaeologists” in the first paragraph mean
“Archaeologists” are people who study the cultures of the past and certain periods of history by examining the remains of buildings and objects found in the ground.
2. Why were dried noodles a popular travel food
Dried noodles were a popular travel food because they were tasty, easy to carry and never went bad.
A2. In pairs, role-play a conversation between a Chinese student and an exchange student who wants to try different kinds of Chinese noodles in a food court (美食广场). Use the example below to help you and pay attention to the expressions in bold. P60
A: Wow, this food court is really big. Can you recommend me a typical Chinese noodle dish
B: There are many kinds of noodles to choose from. Over here, you can get a
famous dish from the north-western part of China—it’s called Lanzhou lamian. As you can see, these are hand-pulled noodles in a rich[ (气味)浓郁的] beef soup.
A: That looks delicious—the colour of the soup is really appetizing(开胃的;引起食欲的;使渴的)!
B: There are some mouth-watering [(食物)令人垂涎的,非常好吃的] fried rice noodles(米粉) over here. This dish is called chao mixian. It’s from Yunnan, in the south-west of China. These rice noodles are quite chewy [ t u:i](需要多嚼的;不易嚼烂的;耐嚼的).
A: It’s going to be really hard to choose what to eat. What are those wide noodles over there
B: That’s a dish called liangpi. It’s a kind of cold noodles(凉面) made from flour. It’s a speciality[ spe i l ti](特产;特色菜) of Shaanxi Province.
A: I see. The sauce(调味汁;酱) looks too spicy[(食物)加了很多香料的,辛辣的] for me, though.
B: Yes, and the flavour is quite acid as well. It contains lots of vinegar. Maybe you should try these Shanghai-style cold noodles in a sweet and creamy peanut sauce. It’s a light(不腻的;清淡的;易消化的) dish, perfect for a hot day like this.
A: Good idea. I’ll try it!

Radio host: Today we have the award-winning chef Paul Martin with us. Welcome Paul!
Paul: Thanks for having me.
Radio host: So, in a moment we are going to talk about your new restaurant, but first, could you tell us about how you decided to become a chef
Paul: Well, ever since I can remember, I’ve been very interested in food. Then,
one summer, when I was 16, I stayed with my grandmother in Avignon [' v j n],a lovely city in the south of France. From my grandmother I learnt how to cook many different traditional French dishes. The experience was inspiring, and from that point on, I knew that the only thing I wanted to do was to become a chef.
Radio host: So you decided to go to a cooking school
Paul: Yes. My parents were happy that I finally had a goal and encouraged me
to apply to a famous cooking school in Paris. I sent my school results(得分;成绩) and wrote an essay about my love of food and my goals—first, to become a chef,and then to have my very own restaurant one day. Luckily, I was accepted.
Radio host: How did you reach your first goal
Paul: Well, to be fair, my grandmother, who used to be a trained chef, really taught me a lot. For example, she showed me how to hold a knife correctly and how to cut different types of food. So, when I started attending the cooking school, I was ahead of(领先) the other students.
I was taught different cooking styles and how to get creative with ingredients and invent new recipes.
After I finished school, I got a job immediately as a cook in a small restaurant in Paris. Five years later, I was hired as the head chef of a
famous restaurant.

Paul: Welcome, everyone! Thank you so much for joining me here today. This is a very special day for me, the opening of my very first restaurant, Chez Paul. It is particularly important that my restaurant is here, in Avignon. This is where my food journey began, as it was home to my dear grandmother, who inspired me to become a chef.
I know she would be very proud of what I have done here. As soon as I saw this building, just off the main street, I knew it would be perfect for my new restaurant.
I’ve created a menu that is a combination of traditional French cooking and modern cuisine. My grandma taught me many traditional French dishes.
Also, I learnt the art of modern cooking at school. With the two rich sources of inspiration, I developed my signature recipes(招牌食谱). The name, Chez Paul, or “Paul’s Home”, is very important too—I hope I have created a space where you will feel as if you were a guest in my home. This is why we only have ten tables, and two of these tables cannot be booked so that they can be kept especially for walk-in(未经预约的;无须事先约定的) guests. But, enough from me!
I would like to invite you all to come inside and see the restaurant, have some drinks and try some of the dishes that I will be serving [(给某人)提供;端上].

My dream restaurant
I would like to open a pizza restaurant in an attractive location in the city centre. The ideal place would be by the riverside. There are a number of restaurants there, but none that sells pizza. Many office buildings are located in the area, and it is also a popular shopping district, which means that the restaurant will have a steady flow of customers.
The target customers are office workers on weekdays and families during the weekends. The restaurant needs to be suitable for both groups, so the atmosphere should be relaxed(安静的;自在的) and friendly. It would be appropriate to use bright warm colours and to put up pictures of the Mediterranean [ med t re ni n] (地中海) on the wall.
The furniture should be simple, and it needs to be convenient for families with small children. If possible, the restaurant should have outdoor seating to attract more customers in spring and summer.
The menu will consist of a variety of food. Besides pizza, there will be some pasta dishes as well as finger food(手抓食品), such as chicken wings and onion rings(洋葱圈;洋葱卷).
There will also be one or two Chinese dishes on the menu for those customers who do not like pizza.
What is special about this restaurant is that it will serve delicious, Italian-style pizza. The customers will be able to choose from a wide variety of high-quality ingredients, especially different kinds of Italian cheese.
Appreciating language P62
Food is an important part of festivals. Read aloud the excerpt [ eks pt](摘录;节选;选段) below about a poor family having a Christmas dinner.
There never was such a goose. Bob said he didn’t believe there ever was such a goose cooked.
Its tenderness(柔嫩) and flavour, size and cheapness, were the themes of universal admiration. It was a sufficient dinner for the whole family; indeed, as Mrs. Cratchit said with great delight (surveying one small atom of a bone upon the dish), they hadn’t eaten it all at last!这是一顿丰盛的晚餐。真的,正如克拉特基特太太非常高兴地说(打量着盘子上的一小块骨头),他们最后还没有把它全吃完!
Yet every one had had enough, and the youngest Cratchits, in particular, were steeped in(沉浸于;潜心于) sage[鼠尾草(可用作调料)] and onion to the eyebrows! But now, the plates being changed by Miss Belinda,Mrs Cratchit left the room alone—too nervous to bear witnesses(为…作证;证明)—to take the pudding up, and bring it in.
Suppose it should not be done enough! Suppose it should break in turning out(生产;制造)! Suppose somebody should have got over the wall of the backyard and stolen it, while they were merry with the goose—a supposition [ s p z n](假定;假设;设想 ) at which the two young Cratchits became furious [ fj ri s] (狂怒的;暴怒的)! All sorts of horror were supposed.
Hallo! A great deal of steam! The pudding was out of the copper. A smell like a washing day! That was the cloth. A smell like an eating-house and a pastry [ pe stri](油酥糕点) cook’s next door to each other, with a laundress’s next door to that! That was the pudding!
In half a minute Mrs Cratchit entered—flushed(脸红的), but smiling proudly—with the pudding, like a speckled(布满斑点的) cannonball [ k n nb :l] (铁弹,石弹), so hard and firm,blazing(熊熊燃烧) in ignited[iɡ naitid] [ (使)燃烧,着火;点燃] brandy, and decorated with Christmas holly [ h li] (冬青) stuck into the top.
她满脸通红,但骄傲地微笑着——手里拿着布丁,像一颗有斑点的炮弹,坚硬而结实,在点燃的白兰地中燃烧着,顶上还插着圣诞青青。
Oh, a wonderful pudding! Bob Cratchit said, and calmly too, that he regarded it as the greatest success achieved by Mrs Cratchit since their marriage. Mrs Cratchit said that, now the weight was off her mind, she would confess [k n fes](承认) she had her doubts about the quantity of flour.
Everybody had something to say about it, but nobody said or thought it was at all a small pudding for a large family. Any Cratchit would have blushed[(因某事)羞愧,尴尬] to hint(暗示;透露;示意) at such a thing.任何一个克拉特基特都会羞于提及这种事的。
(Adapted from A Christmas Carol, by Charles Dickens)
Guided reading
Charles Dickens (1812 — 1870) wrote a number of tales depicting [di pikt ](描写;描述;刻画) wealth and poverty in Victorian London, and A Christmas Carol (1843) is one of his most popular novels. The story is about the mean-spirited(小气的,自私的) and stingy( 小气的;吝啬的) Ebenezer Scrooge, who hates Christmas and only cares about money.
In this adapted excerpt, Scrooge gets to see what Christmas is like for his poor clerk Bob Cratchit and his family. Dickens shows the joy of the family as they eat the main course: the Christmas goose. They seldom get to have such a meal and are naturally very excited.
This is reflected in the writing style: Dickens’s use of exclamation [ ekskl me n] marks(感叹号) and emphatic [ m f t k]( 强调的;有力的) statements shows how the Cratchits are experiencing the situation. For example, the goose is the object of “universal admiration”, and the younger Cratchits enjoy it so much that they are “steeped in sage and onion to the eyebrows”, which means they have sage and onion in their eyebrows.
Dickens describes this occasion as
a joyful one for the family, yet at the same time he reveals their poverty. For instance,with this sentence “Bob said he didn’t believe there ever was such a goose cooked”, Dickens implies that Bob is experiencing something he once believed was impossible.
In the second paragraph, we get to see how worried Mrs Cratchit is: among other things, she is afraid that the pudding won’t turn out well. This is shown in anxious exclamations. The next paragraphs focus on the Christmas pudding, and the steam coming from it is described in a playfully(戏谑地) exaggerated [ ɡ z d re t d](夸张的;夸大的;言过其实的) way:
“A smell like an eating-house ... with a laundress’s next door to that!” Traditionally, the Christmas pudding was wrapped in a damp cloth, before being boiled and steamed[蒸(食物)]. During Victorian times, laundry[要(或正在)洗的衣物]was boiled,so it would have a similar smell. As always (和往常一样;和料想的一样), Dickens skilfully describes the environments
and people of 19th century London in a warm and engaging(有趣的;令人愉快的;迷人的) way.
